Central PA 4th Fest

10/13/2026

We're feeling the summer vibes today in Happy Valley—80 degrees and bright blue skies—so it feels like a perfect time to share an update about 2027!

Did you know that back in 1927, Alpha Fire Company started our town's 4th of July tradition with a community parade,carnival and fireworks display?

Think about that for a second! What major milestone are we officially counting down to? We’d love to hear your guess below 👇

As we look toward this exciting milestone, we have an incredible opportunity alongside partners like The Happy Valley Adventure Bureau to build a truly special celebration for everyone in Central Pennsylvania and beyond.

Let’s carry this tradition forward together!! ❤️🤍💙
